    This is life changing! I had no idea this was even possible! I have been the planner on this trip, and this will be great to share with my hubby. He's usually the one who gets us around wherever we are, so now he'll know where to navigate to. THANK YOU!!!

    I did this for the first time in 2018 when I went to Japan and it was the most easiest/convenient way to get around. Now I make sure to do it all the time traveling. Although I've never actually built out maps on google, I just save all of them on my google maps app on my phone. It harder to make day itineraries because of that, so instead I organize them out of my preference of importance. Your way is definitely a lot more structured and less chaotic. For anyone else reading I would definitely recommend Staring key places on your map like your hotel, airport, meeting locations, etc.

    So good to know!! Yeah that’s probably the quicker mobile solution to just star it all directly on your phone if you didn’t have enough time to make it before hand. And great tip, definitely starting key places like your hotel is important! Thanks so much for your comment :)

    Fabulous vid. You taught a lot of info in only minutes. I'd like to know how to review a location, in street view, BEFORE starting my trip to see if it's, for example, in an unsafe area. When I'm in street view, I can tap the arrows that display on the screen to visually see the streets ill be on. However, tapping those suckers (the arrows) moves me down each street very slowly. Is there any way to navigate the streets faster? I appreciate your thoughts.

    You can do another layer of the map on top of your pins called “directions” and click one pin as Point A and one pin as Point B to see how far. It’s usually pretty obvious once you’re looking at the pins though if you’re able to do it in one day!!

    It's helpful but I'm wondering if it can also map out the route. For example, we flew to Vegas, stayed down in Boulder for the Hoover Dam, drove over to the Grand Canyon, spent a couple days there then drove over to Monument Valley and spent a couple days there (with one day driving over to Page AZ for Horseshoe Bend and Slot Canyons. We then left Monument Valley and went to Moab UT for CanyonLands and Arches NP, then over to Zion for a few days, then back to Vegas. It would be nice to see the distances and time to drive between each major area.

    Hi Brittany, I really like this video! I run a Photo tour company in Singapore and I can’t tell how many people ask me every day “What can I do in Singapore “ … It’s hard to imagine spending so much $$$$ for a trip and not doing any research on what to do. I also see tonnes of folks young and old who do not have working phones or data plans! I would love to include this video on using Google Maps in one of my blogs?

    can these created maps be accessed offline? i remember i tried using created maps for travel a couple years ago, but it is not very easy to use for navigation purpose. i don't remember if it is because it is a couple more clicks to away or it doesn't pull up when i don't i have service in the park. after that, i simply starred the locations, and worked fine,,

    Really? I find them very easy to use when I’m traveling! But yeah you can download an entire city offline, by typing in the city on Google maps app, scrolling over and clicking “download offline map” Then when you pull up this map with the saved pins you should be able to easily access it since it’s within the downloaded area!

    If you open up the Google maps app on your phone, the center button says saved with a tab emoji- click that. Then scroll all the way down and you’ll see 3 buttons that are circled - the button on the right says maps, click it. Then you’ll see all the custom maps you’ve created there!! :)

    Hi! Honestly I never use the layers, but I’d imagine you’d just click on the layer in your app and the directions would automatically pop up But it’s super easy to not have any layers, just all pins, and when you’re in the car just click the next pin and get directions! I do that with walking all the time :)

    @SheRunTheWorld Thanks for responding :) For some reason, I created one layer and I could add directions there and I chose car, but since I am doing a massive trip ( 3 countries with our van and 2 brompton bikes ) I thought to create diferent layers for each city, a layer for each big city with the directions if I will visit lots of sightseeing by bike. I'm not sure why I create a layer and have no option to select any transport, but the only option is to draw a line, which I think is silly. Maybe I am over complicating and should not bother with directions🤔.

I’ve never done this but I believe if you download the area on your map as an offline map in app, then load the map you’ve created while on wifi/service, you should be able to use it freely offline when walking around The key part is loading the map while you’re on service though because you won’t be able to view all your created maps offline
